Ok here’s a site where you can see what I mean by the notes on the fret board. Just print it out and keep it close so you can refer back to it, when you need too. Once you see this diagram, I think you will understand what I was saying before about saying the notes when you play them. So just check out that site, and cruise through it cause there is some other good info too.

About learning to read music, there really aren’t any good sites to learn how to do this efficiently. Most just touch on the basics, cause this is such an in depth subject There is software that you can download to help you learn this though. Some of it is free, here’s a good site where you can find just about any music software out there today.

Once you go there, click on Music Software. It will then take you to another screen, then click on “whatever link fits what you are looking for”, in the case of Learning to read music, Click on Music Tuition. Then it will ask you what System your running, after you click on the one you have, It will give you a list of all the programs available for download. When you find one you like, before you download it make sure its either Shareware or Freeware. Demos and trials don’t really help you that much. They are good to try out, if you are maybe interested in buying the program but there are free ones.

P.S. Make sure when you download something, run Virus scan before installing it.
